Here are some more messages that my dad has been getting from his book. These are amazing and I know dad appreciates them!! Thanks again!!

“I’m proud to call one of the dudes on my personal Mt. Rushmore a friend.”
“This is your best book yet. It’s certainly by far my favorite. I was touched deeply by the tribute to your wife.”
“Your new book is an instant classic as well as a keepsake. Your dedication to Donna is priceless.”
“I can’t say I’ve ever read any better book on whitetails. It may be the best ever written on deer and why we do what we do. You are top shelf class.”
“I opened your new book and saw the title of the final chapter. It’s out of character for me, but I read that last chapter first. It really touched my heart. Anyone who reads it will understand your true feelings for Donna. God has blessed you beyond measure.”
“The last chapter in your book defines your character more than a wall full of 180” deer!
“This book is your finest work ever! It’s the next best thing to actually listening to your stories in person. The more serious tones in the chapters, the introspective and your touching tribute to Donna has given us a better glimpse of your complete self. Well done, my friend.”
“Keep up the good work. After 40 years of service as a police officer, I can say nobody wants to take time for an apprenticeship to learn the basics. Most parents don’t instill any work ethics in youth.”
“I also have a wife who needs special attention with her health. I have not had the time to read your new book, but I did read the dedication and Chapter 36. You are a special person, perhaps one of the last truly caring gentlemen I have had the pleasure of knowing. May God bless you and your family.”
“We are eternally grateful to you for showing us the way. This great book not only has new material but plenty of color photos. Well done!”

This is Jenny, Gene's daughter. Dad has been getting so many notes from people about his new book. This is just a handful of them. I want to thank everyone for sending him these notes. I know that they mean a lot to him!!

“This book is awesome! One of your best. Very well written and superb quality. I’m really enjoying this read!”
“Your dedication to Donna is an inspiration to all good husbands. Thank you, Gene!”
“I don’t want to sound like a p***y but I got very emotional reading what you wrote. Our friendship has been a great honor.”
“What a treat! Oh, man! Thank you so much. I’ve been blessed.”
“I read Chapter 36 first. What you wrote was the most eloquent statement of love I’ve ever read. It left me speechless with tears on my cheeks. You are truly a man every man hopes to be. God’s blessings to you and Donna.”
“My wife came into the room moved to tears with what you wrote about Donna.”
“You’ve been one of the greatest joys of my life. You’ve had a totally phenomenal run. We continue to pray for you and Donna.”
“Your new book has been placed in our collection of family heirlooms.”
“Excellent read! Send me a selfie!”
Outstanding logic! Real hunters need to get back into the woods! Get even closer. Where have all the woodsmen gone?”
“Your new book choked me up. Thank you so much. You are a special man.”
“I’m blown away by your new book. You have no idea what this means to me. If you ever want to go sailing in Louisiana, I’m your guy!”
“Your new book gave me goose bumps and choked me up. I love you dearly buddy.”
“You are that guy. Real bowhunters are proud of the way you walked the trail. I feel so blessed knowing you.”
“You done good, buddy. VERY good!”
“Most of the time, all we ever get in the mail is bills. What a great book arrived today! It’s been an honor knowing you. Thank you for your sage advice on hunting, marriage, life, etc. You’ve been somewhat of a father figure to me since losing my dad. You and Donna will always be in our prayers.”
